Come see and hear the North American roadshow for the

"Globalize Liberation: How to Uproot the System and
Build a Better World," edited by David Solnit

Featuring David Solnit and Carey Lampecht with
puppets, music, interactive popular education, and
updates on the Republican National Convention
mobilization.

David Solnit was an organizer for the successful
shutdowns of the WTO in Seattle in 1999 as well as San
Francisco's financial district in 2003 the day after
the invasion of Iraq, and is a cofounder of Art and
Revolution. Carey Lampecht is a San Francisco music
composer, artist, and organizer who is a classically
trained violinist, currently performing with the Punk
Rock Orchestra.

The new book "Globalize Liberation" gives voice and a
how-to guide to the "new radicalism," a term used to
describe the diverse movement of movements that is
challenging empire, corporate capitalism, and Bush
worldwide. The new radicalism, inspiring millions to
flood the streets in resistance and to take action in
their own communities, is new both in how popular and
widespread it has become, and in its original methods
of organizing for change.

"Globalize Liberation" weaves together the experiences
and insights of community organizers, direct action
movements, and global justice struggles from North
America, Europe, and Latin America. It offers clear
analyses of the root problems, new strategies and
tools for radical change, and examples of effective
organizing campaigns and popular rebellions from
Argentina to the agricultural fields of Florida, and
from anti-prison organizing in California's Central
Valley to the radical popular movement in Italy.
Visually rich, with over 180 powerful photos and
illustrations, "Globalize Liberation" uses an
innovative travel-guide-style tab navigation and
cutting-edge design.
